Steve, you are the man!

Is there any way to tell it not to shuffle the songs once you've pressed the play button on an album (ie. just play them as the standard album order)

    In the MP setup program, there's an option that's something like 'shuffle playlists', try turning this off perhaps?

    Ok, I like the ability to PLAY an entire folder... was actually ready to suggest the idea until I read through this thread. Now... what keystroke shortcut do I use for the play button on the remote. I have the latest CVS version installed and using ENTER doesn't work. Or wasn't it in CVS yet?

    SteveV - thank you for the Play setting, I really appriciate it.

    Some extras things, I would like you to think about:

    1. Do a shortcut button for the now playing screen - for the MCE remote I propose the blue button - but what ever, just a shortcut button.

    2. Have two settings on the now playing screen...the first is the one that's already there now. The second one would be used when you play an album either MP3 or CD - i'll try to show you with a mockup...

    So you should be able to switch to this screen - and the dot represents the current playing (perhaps another icon would be better 8) )

    3. Could we store the album info locally - instead of looking it up each time?

    Must be one of my first posts. Motivated by HUGE appreciation of the changes you made to MyMusic. MediaPortal suddenly became much more useful to me with these changes.

    Main reason, feedback on the Playing Now window, which I had been waiting for without knowing it. I think I found a minor glitch.

    While playing some music, being in Artist View, pressing Play on an Album, thus being in Now Playing view, I entered a DVD in my drive. My setting is set to "ask about play DVD". Music went on, popup window came up with choice "Yes / No", but then appeared at the bottom left the Album Thumbnail/Visualisations window and track name display as in the "old" Music Play window.
